what annoys the crap out of me at the moment is the sheer number of details out and about about this game.. i mean.. omg.. didnt they think about these things before they decided on early releases?! The sheer number of troll posts is beyond ridiculous, like someone 'apparently' had up end game pics but they all had different colours ' meaning the multiple endings with same outcome' i'm strongly suspicious that all theyve done is photoshop them to have different colours etc... but people buy into it all and rage hard...so successful troll is successful!
Like I keep saying.. as long as I get my time with Kaiden, I couldnt care less if the universe burns I will enjoy the time we have together in game and the time ive spent playing these games
Well, after DA2 where the game ended the same no matter what you did, it's a lot easier to buy into the idea that this one will end the same no matter what you do only with slight variations.
Now, I understand what they were trying to do with DA2 in terms of the story telling and so on and I agree that there are some times that no matter what you do, certain things will happen, but their execution of the concept was flawed by their storytelling up to that point IMO.
Just one thing I can point to was their flawed execution of time. It was a little like watching Episode III Star Wars where supposedly at least nine months has passed for Anakin's fall, but we sure don't feel like it's been nine months. The only visual marker of the passage of time we really have is Padme's pregnancy which is pretty well hidden most of the time, and the rest of the script doesn't play out like something that takes nine months. DA2 is the same. For a game that takes place across 10 years, it doesn't have that feel to it. You get told that time has passed, but very little in the game itself feels like it's been dragging across that span of time.
At any rate, after that flaw. People are a bit gun shy when it comes to ME3. If there's one thing, just one thing that BioWare really needs to get right, it's this. And it's very easy to believe, particularly with the spector of EA looming over them, that they're going to drop the ball.
And now for something completely different in an attempt to lighten the mood.
